		</div><p>A suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, who vanished from a Portuguese resort 13 years ago, suffered two broken ribs in an incident at a German court, authorities said Tuesday.</p>
<p>The incident happened after Christian Brueckner, who is serving a prison sentence for a drug conviction, was taken to Braunschweig state court on Monday for a routine hearing in that case.</p>
<p>Court spokeswoman Jessica Knab-Henrichs told The Associated Press that he was briefly treated in a hospital for two broken ribs, and was then returned to the court where the hearing took place.</p>
<p>The incident is under investigation and further details on what happened at the court were expected to be released later, she said.</p>
<p>Although Brueckner is a suspect in the McCann case, prosecutors have said they do not have enough evidence to hold him on the McCann case alone.</p>

<p>In addition to the drug trafficking sentence, which Brueckner will have finished serving in January, he was convicted in 2019 of the 2005 rape of a 72-year-old American woman in Portugal and sentenced to another seven years.</p>
<p>That conviction is under appeal.</p>
<p>Madeleine McCann was three at the time of her 2007 disappearance from an apartment while her family holidayed in the seaside town of Praia da Luz in Portugal’s Algarve region.</p>
<p>German authorities in June said they had identified the 43-year-old German citizen as a suspect in the case and were investigating him on suspicion of murder.</p>
